JAKARTA - United States President Donald Trump said his younger brother Robert Trump died on Saturday local time. Robert died the day after Donald Trump visited New York Hospital.

"It is with a heavy heart that I share that my great brother Robert passed away peacefully last night. He is not just my brother, he is my best friend. He will be missed deeply, but we will meet again. His memories will live forever in my heart. . Robert, I love you. Rest in peace, "Trump said as quoted by Antara, Sunday, August 16.

Robert Trump died at the age of 71. He is a business executive and real estate developer. Unlike his brother, Robert Trump has avoided the public eye.

President Trump paid an emotional visit to visit his ailing brother Friday at New York's Presbyterian / Weill Cornell Medical Center before heading to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, for the weekend.

The president is expected to attend the funeral, an aide said. He has a busy travel schedule in the coming days with plans to visit four states as part of his return election campaign.

The cause of death was not disclosed. Trump told reporters Friday that his brother was "having a hard time" with a hidden illness that was not shared with anyone else. A source with knowledge of the situation said the brother was taking blood thinners.
